I acquired the vehicle march 2015 as a bare shell recently media blasted to a high standard and sprayed with epoxy primer. Restoration began by changing the front and rear valances, new outer wheel tubs, jacking chassis mount and the heater plenum.

 

The body then was given a full body respray in ermine white underside stonechipped, most parts where taken to be blasted then powdercoated in black as well as all aluminium and chrome parts have either been professionally polished or rechromed. All nuts bolts and fixtures where zinc plated.

 

Seats have been brilliantly restored in really soft italian leather and new custom made carpets edges bined in leather and new headlining by craig watton classic and custom interiors. Brand new door cards from aldridge trimming. S1 Dash top repaired and resprayed.

 

Car was given the team lotus stripe and vinyl wrap plates at james alpe. Other small touches to the team lotus theme is a small badge on the rear of the car of bonnet pins I added a custom rocker cover which really finishes the 1700 crossflow engine off.

 

Engine has been given a full overhaul/rebuild professionally by wayne mitchell competition engines, unleaded conversion on big valve head.

 

Alot of work and money has gone into the build thousands spent. Please no timewasters genuine buyers only all invoices and documents of restoration are present, original uk 2 door car. MOT november 2016 perfect for next years upcoming shows. More pictures on link, May consider px of mk1/mk2 escort 2 door or van
